Keep Your Cool in Ramadan

Do not try to resolve issues with anyone when you are fatigued or irritated,Try to always pick the best time to talk to people,preferably when they are not easily infuriated,
Always think of the consequences of your irritability.Will it create unnecessary tensions in your relationships between your boss,colleagues.family or relatives?Be creative and invest your anger in channels other than arguing.
Train yourself to forgive others throughout this Noble mouth.Do not underestimate the power of forgiveness and positive thinking.
Do not express your anger immediately.Take time to think over the best way to deal with the problem.The next day when you meet the person that has angered you,express your discontent rationally.
To reduce the pressures of the day,allocate a relaxation period.Use this time to pray and concentrate in prayer.As Allah says,(And seek assistance through patience and prayer,and most surely it is a hard thing except for the humble one)(Al-Baqarah 2:45)
Exercise regularly,this relaxes the body and mind.Try to abstrain from smoking or any other stimulants which increase the sense of irritability.
At the end,remember the hadith of the Prophet(peace be upon him)"The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength,but the strong is the one who controls himself while in anger"(Al-Bukhari)

Ramadan is a month of serenity and spiritual elevation. But when the body's glucose level decreases too much from fasting, this could lead to irritability and aggression. Other factors may also contribute to the feeling of irritability, such as refraining from the habitual cigarette. Prophet Mohamed (peace be upon him) advised us to ‘keep our cool' while fasting and prevent ourselves from being easily provoked or dragged into a fight. The practice of self-control is a pertinent part of fasting. From Prophet Mohamed's (peace be upon him) traditions, “If one of you is fasting, he should avoid sexual relation with his wife and quarreling, and if somebody should fight or quarrel with him, he should say, ‘I am fasting'.”
If you begin to feel angry or irritated say, “I seek refuge with Allah from Satan.”
